| rdfs:comment | - Follow the courier in the red bird suit and once he reaches one of the back alleys (the alley where he goes is randomized each mission, similarly to how Raymond spawns in one of three places), sedate him, dispose of his body (usually there is a trash bin nearby), take his costume and the diamonds. This is easiest if he goes to the left when exiting the hotel. His job was to deliver these diamonds to Mark Purayah II in his hideout, so head to the book store located north-west and get up onto the second floor. There is a guard here who periodically goes to Purayah's room, so feel free to sedate him and drag him away (so Purayah doesn't see his body when you open the door) before going into the room to prevent your cover from being blown when killing Purayah.

This is easiest if he goes to the left when exiting the hotel. His job was to deliver these diamonds to Mark Purayah II in his hideout, so head to the book store located north-west and get up onto the second floor. There is a guard here who periodically goes to Purayah's room, so feel free to sedate him and drag him away (so Purayah doesn't see his body when you open the door) before going into the room to prevent your cover from being blown when killing Purayah. Note: Going to the bookstore (the one guarded by the yellow bird guard) directly is a very bad idea, and will often ruin your mission very quickly. Also, if you control the diamond briefcase, you can put it near the ICA crate in the hotel (the building you are in while mission starts) and it will not be picked up by anyone else. Purayah can be taken out in a couple different ways. One of the easiest is to plant an RU-AP mine in the diamond briefcase. When you meet Purayah, he's man will instruct you to set the briefcase on the desk, then he will bid you farewell. You can detonate the bomb after you leave the room (do it right after you leave their line of sight or he might take a walk to the balcony and you will miss him), although this destroys the briefcase and leaves you no chance of obtaining the bonus. Alternatively, you can take a much more hands-on approach. When Purayah sits down at the desk or stands by the window, you can sneak up behind him and fiber wire/poison him. Purayah has a walkie-talkie on his body which helps you find the location of his fellow assassins. Once Purayah is dead, quickly drag his body over to the container in the corner. This has to be done fast, as the guard in the yellow bird suit frequently comes into the room (you need Yellow bird disguise in order to remain unsuspected) You can knock that guy out that you won't have to worry about that. You can take the diamond briefcase back, but you have to toss it over the balcony outside. Otherwise, the guard will see you "stealing" the payment and he will open fire on you. After you throw the suitcase over the balcony, you have to make note where it landed and move quickly, otherwise one of the cops will pick it up and take it to the Lost-and-Found, which is smack-dab in the middle of a restricted area. If getting the walkie-talkie isn't important to you, Purayah can also be killed from afar. There is an alley south of the bookstore, differentiated from the others by a hanging piano. Across the courtyard from the poker game is a drain pipe you can climb. At the very top is a crow's nest. You can use either a sniper rifle or a Silverballer that has been upgraded with a scope, although it might be difficult to line up the shot. Purayah will stand in the doorway of the balcony to watch the party goers below. A single head-shot will take him down, but his body will be inevitably discovered by his bodyguard. You can even kill him from here with an SLP .40 .S, aim towards his chest and it will be a headshot due to the distance. Lastly, you can kill him by bombing him from behind. This is a more preferred approach as you won't need any disguises or custom weapons for this. Just enter the "New Orleans Bookstore" shop by The Birds headquarters and sneak past the storekeeper on to the upper floors. The path is relatively linear through an ill-maintained area of the shop until you come upon a dimly lit doorway barred by a couple of planks. This doorway has Purayah's chair on it's other side. Simply place the RU-AP mine on the planks and walk your way back to the street. Detonate the mine when Purayah sits in his chair. It is essential that you leave the bookstore before detonating the mine as guards will rush towards the store after the blast.
